Volleyball Nutrition: How Super Greens can boost your game by giving you energy and making you healthier.
Today for my volleyball nutrition review, I look at Vibrant Health’s Green Vibrance super greens blend. My name is Russ Marchewka, and I am the health and wellness guy in the volleyball community. I’m a top 25 player in the US and “mostly vegan” meaning I eat a plant based diet and take fish oil as a health supplement. I have spent the last 2 years on tour perfecting how I eat and what I supplement with for complete nutrition, optimal performance and faster recovery.

Super Greens are essential because they:
give you complete nutrition in one little scoop
supply your body with a full spectrum of trace minerals which are necessary for optimal recovery
help to increase circulation and oxygenation of the blood
probiotics help to improve digestion, which increases nutrient uptake
Volleyball Nutrition, What Super Greens are
Super Greens are a dehydrated, powdered blend of grasses, vegetables, wild herbs and fruits. Since most of the fresh fruits and vegetables that we eat are water, it makes sense that when we dehydrate and powder them, a full serving can fit in one little scoop. A good super greens formula will contain grasses like wheat grass, barley grass and oat grass. Additionally, other vegetables and fruits along with wild herbs. Herbs are one of the most important ingredients as they are the healers. They help to rebuild your immune system which can keep you healthy and strong all season long.
Volleyball Nutrition, How are super greens superior to regular food?
If you’re like most people, and how I used to be, as an athlete, you try and eat healthy. Our body is a temple, or so they say. You cut down on the sugar, try and eat at home a little more by cooking for yourself. Well, I’m here to tell you that’s just not enough. Sorry to inform you that the food you buy at the store is not giving our body enough nutrition to be on top of its game.
Soils have been so depleted of nutrients that even organic food contains less than 50% of the nutrients from just a generation ago. Don’t use organic foods? Well then not only are you getting less nutrients, but also fertilizers and pesticides in your diet. Sorry fellow athletes, nutrition is much more than fat, carbs and protein. For the healthiest you and the strongest athlete you need to be looking at trace minerals, vitamins, and phyto-chemicals.
Super greens contain trace minerals, important vitamins and valuable phyto-chemicals which are microscopic nutrients that help facilitate better circulation, more oxygen rich blood cells and actually detoxify you too!
Volleyball Nutrition, You can’t be on top of your game if you’re sick in bed
You know this to be true. To be the best you can be at any sport, you need to practice. There is no way to realize your maximum potential if you get sick or don’t have a lot of energy. 90% of our immune system is in our digestive tract, our intestines, sometimes called our gut.
Quality Super Greens formulas contain probiotics which are good bacteria that live in our gut. They help to break down food, fight off foreign invaders like viruses and bacteria and improve nutrient uptake. Taking Super Greens everyday, you’ll help to strengthen your immune system, but also help ensure that the food and supplements you’re taking are being absorbed for maximum benefit.
Volleyball Nutrition, why I recommend Vibrant Health’s Green Vibrance
Vibrant Health makes a Super Greens formula called “Green Vibrance” and it’s the best in my opinion. They use organic ingredients which is important and they have the most variety of any formula that I’ve tried. There is no way that you or I could figure out how to get 70+ grasses, vegetables and wild herbs into our body everyday any other way.
Any Super Greens formula worth the money is going to have a bitter flavor. So the most important part about incorporating super greens into your daily routine is to make sure that you enjoy taking them. For this reason, I have found a couple methods that work really well. I either mix them with my Oxylent (link to Oxylent in the store) for a fruity, juice type drink, or I mix them with my protein (link to Growing Naturals). Both ways help to mask the bitterness of the super greens while also adding to the nutrition value. Green Vibrance comes in 30, 60 and 90 day supply.
